Montreal multi-artist Ouri, has shared her new single “Shape Of It.” The song contains a beautiful instrumental arrangement composed solely of Ouri’s performance on the harp and cello accompanied by her wonderful voice. The new track follows her recently released track “Fonction Naturelle” that appeared on the EVER NEW compilation alongside artists Mac Demarco and Jessy Lanza, in benefit of Canadian social justice organizations – Black Health Alliance, Indspire, and The 519.

Ourielle Auvé, known professionally as Ouri, grew up in France and moved to Montreal at the age of 16 with dreams of becoming a composer. As Ouri developed her compositional ability, as well as her production and vocal chops, she integrated herself with late night DJ sets in Montreal’s underground rave scene and was eventually selected to take part in Red Bull Music Academy’s Montreal Bass Camp. From there, her profile began to grow as she headlined Boiler Room’s Montreal showcase, toured with the likes of Yves Tumor and Jacques Greene and released her first EP’s Superficial and We Share Our Blood. Fans of FKA Twigs and Kate Bush, will definitely enjoy the musicianship and vocal stylings of Ouri.
